. Body integument black, antennae, tibiae and tarsi reddish. Dorsal vestiture (pronotum + elytra) consisting of overlapping, recumbent, parallel-sided or bilaterally convex clothing scales, each 2–5 × as long as wide, truncate at apex, not aligned on interstriae, concealing integument. Colour of scales black, dark brown to pale brown, grey or white; darker scales usually concentrated medially over pronotum and on elytral interstriae 1–3; paler scales concentrated laterally and on pronotum and elytra, usually forming a transverse spot near middle of interstriae 1–3. Scales arising from strial punctures not different from those of rest of vestiture.
. Forehead slightly wider than epifrons near antennal insertions, scales recumbent. Eyes convex, in dorsal view distinctly exceeding outline of head, surrounded by a ring of short scales, on forehead directed towards occiput; distance between eye and scrobe less than width of an eye. Epifrons flat, as wide as forehead, epifrontal scales suberect and orientated laterad, towards scrobes, overlapping. Frons with 3 pairs of long erect lateral setae. Epistome without median seta. Antennae with funicle segment 1 longer than wide, as long as 2 and 3 combined, 2–4 subcylindrical, slightly angular on inside, 5–7 globular or moderately elongate.
. Pronotum moderately transverse (W:L ratio 1.15), widest near midlength, sides arcuate; apex and base subequal in width; integument densely punctate, spaces between punctures narrow, dull, surface regularly convex.
. Slender. Tibiae with apical mucro, inner margin bisinuate; protibiae curved in apical half; mesotibiae curved in apical third; metatibiae straight. Protarsi with segments 1 and 2 isodiametric; meso and metatarsi with segments 1 and 2 2 × as long as wide.
. Ventrites 1–4 with pale, recumbent, plumose scales intermixed with white suberect setae; ventrite 5 with a few scales near base, elsewhere setose only; ventrites 1–2 slightly concave medially, 5 convex medially.
. Body of penis elongate (W:L ratio 0.3), as long as temones, acuminate at apex, in profile downcurved in apical third. Tectum narrow but distinct; endophallus with copulatory sclerite divided into two symmetrical, elongate structures. Parameroid lobes of dorsal plate of tegmen fused and jointly evenly rounded at apex, devoid of seta. Spiculum gastrale asymmetrical; divergence of basal arms V-shaped.
